  This but unironically. Burying lines costs money and who is going to spend it?

    Uh, no it doesn’t? Just use a shovel, wedge open the dirt like 6-12 inches, and Bob’s your uncle. I recommend also putting in conduit so you can fish another line if you ever need to.

        Are you talking about utility work? If so, that’s on your ISP.

        Our infra is all underground until it reaches my house, so there’s a few feet of exposed cable in the corner of the backyard behind a fence where it enters my house. I’m not exactly sure what the arrangement is, but I think they coordinate with the electric or water utilities if they need to service one of their boxes.

  I would reply, but you clearly are more interested in making your own answers for yourself.
